American Ladder Institute
The American Ladder Institute, a Chicago-based non-profit association of industry leaders dedicated to promoting safe ladder use, has declared March 2017 “National Ladder Safety Month” to heighten awareness and promote safe use by homeowners and working professionals. “Every year, over 300 people die in ladder-related accidents, and thousands suffer disabling injuries,” said Ryan Moss, president of the institute and CEO of Little Giant Ladder Systems. “The American Ladder Institute is calling upon all individuals and organizations throughout the nation to promote and to participate in ladder safety.” Join the ladder safety conversation on social media using hashtag #LadderSafetyMonth and #LadderSafety, or visit www.laddersafetymonth.com.
